Now, he wont even go near his food unless there is some new "flavor" for him.
Its been 2 days and i;ve been keeping a close watch on him. I wont let him near my mom or whoever would feed him table scrap. I would leave his food out and, he would stif it, but he wont eat!!
I want to know what does everyone esle feed their yorkie? |
I have a picky eater too. I notice that she become less picky after I make her starve. She is 9 months now and about 5 lbs. If I were you I probably will try other dog food. Many dogs like canidae. I would try that. You can mix it with Evangers or Merrick (wingaling or pot pie will work on most picky eater). Here is the trick. Dog will not starve herself. If he does not eat after you mix the food take the food back and give it again in the afternoon/evening. Once they feel hungry, they will eat and have more regular appetite. I was food shopping for my pup and at the end I just let her hunger for 1-2 days. After that she reliaze that if she does not eat she will be hungry, so she starts eating regularly. I do not feed her much for dinner, so she will know that she has to earn the treat in the evening if she does not want to starve. I would watch out carefully and make sure your dog is not sick or hypoglycemic since he is still very young.
